Caring for the battery
Your VisorPhone uses a 680mAh Lithium Ion battery. A fully-charged
battery provides approximately 3 hours of talk time and more than 70 hours
of standby time. Follow these guidelines to get the most from your battery:
■
Do not disassemble the battery pack.
■
If you are not using your VisorPhone for an extended period of time,
disconnect the battery pack from the phone and store it in a cool, dry
place; charge the battery at least once every six months when not in use.
■
Use your VisorPhone at normal temperatures (between -4 degrees and
130 degrees Fahrenheit). Using your VisorPhone outside of the normal
temperature range can severely decrease the battery performance.
■
Never throw the battery pack into fire or expose it to extreme heat.
■
If the battery pack ever becomes hot or smells odd, stop using it.
■
If the battery pack becomes damaged and leaks liquid, stop using it and
avoid skin contact with the leaking liquid.
■
Use only a genuine Handspring battery pack. Third party battery packs
are not guaranteed to function properly with your VisorPhone.
■
Always replace the battery pack with the same type of pack. Using
another type of battery pack may cause an explosion.
■
Do not short any battery contacts or let the contacts come in direct
contact with conductive or electronic objects.
■
Be sure to properly dispose of the battery. For more information, see
